Register Size Register Size
BusBus
The number of bits processed at one time by the processor. Counted in multiples of 8 bits, such as 8-, 16-, and 32-bit register size. Sometimes referred to as word size by the computer industry. Processors today have 64-bit or 128-bit register sizes.
Hertz is a measurement of cycles per second (or frequency). One hertz equals one cycle per second. One gigahertz (1GHz) is one billion cycles per second.
Electronic lines to move the 1s and 0s inside the computer.

In order to overclock, you must have the motherboard documentation to determine whether the system board
supports different CPU speeds and different multipliers.

Soft Skills—Active ListeningSoft Skills—Active ListeningActive listening is participating in a conversation where you focus on what the customer is saying—in other words, listening more than talking. For a technician, active listening has the following benefits:
•Allows you to gather data and symptoms quickly•Allows you to build customer rapport•Improves your understanding of the problem•Allows you to solve the problem quicker because you understand the problem better•Provides mutual understanding between you and your customer•Provides a means of having a positive, engaged conversation rather than having a negative,•confrontational encounter•Focuses on the customer rather than the technician•Provides an environment where the customer might be more forthcoming with information•related to the problem
